A Strange Adventure.

Some years ago Sacher-Masoc wrote
novel, in which his hero, Polish
Count. took deep interest in youth,
so great an interest as to superintend
the education Of his proteee and to
make him the confdant of his joys and
sorrows. When the pupil was intel
lectually strong enough to discuss the
most abstruse subjects with his master
the latter discovered shat his care and
affection had been bestowed upon a
woman-and fled. Not long after the
publication of this book-but ! must
tell the story as Sacher-Masoch told it
| to me. "Some time after this book APP
peared | received an anonymous letter
asking me to make Il compact Of friend
ship with the writer, a compact similar
to that made by the hero of my novel.
My anonymous would-be-friend added,

California, writes Us as follows:
Our land in Los Angeles county has

likely to be one Of the most populous
districts of the county. This is certain

A vineyard of eight acres produced
fifteen and half tons OF excellent
raisins. They were made right on the
ground, and il was a great sight, at
tracing no little attention. This vine
yard is now six years old ard bears ten
tons of magnificent Muscats to the
acre.
The orange crop Is going 10 bring
big prices. have not sold ours, but
Prof. Kellum. who has the next grove
to our place, has just sold his oranges
on the trees for FIVE thousand dollars.
The packing company send and pick
them and dispose OF them. The crop IS
not large this year, but doubt ii any
Florida grove Of this size can make q
better showing.
You can understand from these
figures how land has gone up SO ire
mendously: People never know what
it was capable Of under careful eulti-
walton. The work on these ranches is
very light and is mainly done with
horse-cultiyators. Pruning Of the vines
is about the hardest job in vineyard
culture. -Americaa Agricaiurist,

4 - an sure they viii die! Tn, mann
ma, what shall do?" Edie cried one
morning Us she threw herself into her
mothers arms.
The countess looked grave, and fixed
/ her eyes reproachfglly upon Cecil, who
turned aside to hide the flush Of shame
on his cheek
She did not speak then. but few
/ days later she called Cecil into COM
fortablo-looking apartment where a
| knd-faced man was sitting.
This IS your tutor, Cecil she be-
gan quietly in future, Edic viii not
share your lessons; She will have her
own governess.
Goa, mammal Cecil cried, then
stopped short and bit his lip.
Poor Ellie! She felt quite heart-brok-
en- wien she heard her mothers decis-
ion.
Before, the lesson-hours had been
such happy ones. now they were so long
| and tedious, the child thought they
would never end.
Her goyerness was kind and tender,
but her companionship did not compen-
safe the little Girl for the loss OF her
brother.
Sometimes in their tranquil walks
they would meet Cecil with his tutor;
tnen what joyful greetings passed be-
tween them
At last Cecil, too, found separation
from his sister uncomfortable, and one dav
surprised his mother, when she paid
her morning visit to the schoolroom, By
bursting into tears
oh, mamma! | cannot work or play;
l am so unhappy without Edie Do
please let us be together rs before"
Ny poor child!' the countess wills
pered softly, drawing him to her side.
when you took the doves from their
cage, and placed them apart, did you
think of their grief? The birds have
been daily growing more melancholy
and will soon die. You say you are
miserable without Edie; don't you
think your dove is wretched without its
mate?'
Cecil for moment remained silent.
Presently he raised his head.
"Iut the doves in their old cage,
mamma, and let me also be With Edie,
| feel now thai was crdcl."
The birds were happy, and the chill
dren too. JOY once more reigned in
all hearts; and the tender love existing
between Cecil and his sister seemed to
have deepened during their separation,
for never were there such two devoted
little children as those two.

Senator stancord's Great University.

l
Senator Stanford's enthusiasm over
bis project Of rearing a university in
California that shall rival any upon
the face of the globe is increasing at
such rapid rate that he is said to
have under consideration the advisable
ity of resigning from the Senate in or
der 10 devote himself catirel TO the
work in hand. Referring to The pro-
posed institution he recently said: 1T
will at first accommodate only those
who wish to take the higher courses,
but my plan is that il shall ultimately
furnish instruction to children as well
as be open to both sexes. The building
plans have not been decided upon as
yet, but they are under consideration.
Mr. 0Imstead, the landscape gardener,
is preparing n model OF the grounds.
Ny idea is to have low, one-story
structures, connected with one another
by arcades and covering liberal
area. That this would be welcome
change from the gloomy pile ami dor
mitory plan is apparent enough at tie
outset. Each structure Is 70 nave its
own particular plot Of ground, which
is to be kept in such state Of constant
cultivation as is possible only under
the climatic conditions OF California.
Something moro than money is needed
to rear an university on al enduring
base, but Senator Stanford is fortunate
in having an &iiacst unlimited amount
of this, and lie manifests no foolish
tendency il beginning his work by
making both buildings aud grounds as
beautiful as all conditions VIII permit.
